In the year 2070,
a destructive war leaves the world divided by a towering wall, with the rich people residing in a city called
Silver City led by the Dalini, while the poor people survive in a destroyed city and struggle for basic necessities as it is controlled by Silver City. Meanwhile, Guddu resides in the Silver City and works for Dalini's henchmen John, who conducts
boxing matches and earns money through the bets placed by the rich people. One day, John tells Guddu to take Dimple, John's girlfriend, to a nightclub as he is busy with a meeting. Dimple gets physical with Guddu, where John catches them red-handed and buries them alive. Guddu miraculously survives and Kaizad asks him to move away to the city of poor people and meet Shiva, a combat trainer. Guddu learns that he is actually Ganapath, a legendary
saviour of the poor people, as predicted by Maharishi Dalapathi. Guddu receives
combat training under Shiva and his confidante Jassi, where he ultimately embraces himself as Ganapath and deceives John, Dalini and their
henchmen into believing that he is on their side. Trained as an accomplished
fighter, Guddu wins matches for them, while pretending to Jassi and Shiva that he is uninterested in their cause. After securing victories in most of his matches, Guddu persuades John and Dalini's associate to bet their money on his opponent in the final match as Guddu plans to lose intentionally in the match. Guddu also convinces them to allow the poor to wager their savings on this match, where John and his associates profit further by snatching money from the poor people, leaving them in a miserable state. However, this is Guddu's way of exacting revenge as he intends to follow a different course. While releasing Jassi from her confinement, Guddu discreetly instructs her to encourage the poor people to place their savings on the match. Guddu executes the plan, which he shared with John, easily dominating his opponent in the first two rounds. In the third round, Guddu feigns defeat, but realises that John has placed his and Dalini's money on the opponent. Guddu stages a comeback and defeats his opponent, causing substantial losses to John and Dalini. Guddu subsequently reveals his actions on television, watched by both the poor and rich people, and confesses that Shiva is his biological father. Guddu says that he has given a chance for the poor people to challenge the rich people with their winnings, while donning the mantle of Ganapath. Guddu also challenges Dalini to reveal himself, where Dalini reveals himself as Guddu's
doppelgänger and it is revealed that Dalini is actually a form of
AI. Guddu challenges Dalini to a fight, thus hinting at a sequel titled
Ganapath 2: Rise of the Hero. ==Cast==
